Brandt Signs New Pact With Poles On Boundary
In Warsaw Chancellor Willy Brandt and Polish Premier Josef Cyzar kiewicz signed a treaty calling for normalization of ties and renouncing Germany's claim to 40,000 square miles of prewar Polish seized territory. The pact, signed at Radziwill Palace, mirrors the Bonn Moscow accord by recognizing current borders along the Oder Neisse line and setting the stage for wider ratification battles. Poland also pledged no interference if ethnic Germans east of the line wish to emigrate, a point tied to tens of thousands of Poles seen as Poles rather than Germans.
